copyrighted file sharing is ILLEGAL
making a tape copy and giving it away is ILLEGAL
loaning a CD and letting someone make a copy is ILLEGAL
hell, they are suing people now because the record industry wants to make it ILLEGAL to upload your CD into an MP3 player or to a PC for the purposes of loading an MP3 player.
I don;t agree with this, but it is the law, and I would hate to get sonic youth or chabib in trouble for this.
